What is the difference between the SMAW and GTAW?
The main difference between these two types of welding is that GTAW uses gases to create the weld whilst SMAW uses an an electrical current. Both are very popular welding processes.
What to weld saramet 35 with?
Bohler EASN 2 Si-IG for GTAW Bohler FOX EAS 2Si for SMAW
What Filler metal is used for p-91 Chrome?
For GTAW Process use ER90-B9 and for the SMAW Process use E 9018-B9, or E 9015-B9
What is mean by law hydrogen electrode?
Low Hydrogen? It is a welding electrode that has controlled Hydrogen levels for use in SMAW i.e E7018. Not to be confused with a low hydrogen processes like GMAW and GTAW
Where do you prefer arc welding?
Almost all welding today is done with electricity (Arc Welding) even on cast iron. SMAW, GTAW, GMAW etc. --AW means Arc Welding.
Why does the welder need to understand the composition of an alloy being welded?
Almost all metals are "Alloyed" including Gold and Silver. An Alloy is an Element added to another Element to change its characteristics. For example Chromium and Nickel are added to Steel to create Stainless Steel. If you didn't know these were in the metal you wouldn't know what filler material to use. Filler material includes Electrodes (SMAW) Rods (GTAW AND OAW) and Wire (SMAW). Even Carbon Steel is Alloyed (to increase its Tensile Strength for example). Sometimes as little as 1/10th of 1% of an alloy changes the base metal considerably and thereby the uses of that metal.
How do you calculate nomber of electrode in SMAW welding?
no need
Which arc welding process would shipbuilding industry use?
In European Shipbuilding Industries used SMAW,GTAW,GMAW,SAW,FCAW(MAG). In INDIAN Shipbuilding Industries used, LBW,EBW,EGW,ESW,FCAW,SAW.
What is the different between certified welder and certification welder?
A certified welder is one who has successfully passed the requirements of an industry specification for welding in a particular process (SMAW, GMAW, FCAW, GTAW), and in a specific position (1G, 2G, 3F, 6G, etc.), with a specific material (mild steel, aluminum, stainless, etc.) The certification relates only to the specification that was qualified to, in the position qualified, on the material qualified, and only with the process used. A master welder is one who can, or has, passed the most restrictive position (Usually 6G), in all processes, and in many different material groups. There is no mention of "master welder" in welding specifications, it is usually an internal company designation. It is expected that a Master Welder can weld any material, in any position, with any process.
Which welding process uses a constant current power source?
smaw and tig(gtaw) are using CC source. because these both types using manual wire feeding. so welder can not able to maintain constant arc length. change in arc length will change voltage. so it needs power supply which should not affected by this arc length = voltage changes. that's why CC type is used for these process. in CC type source change in voltage will not change current much.
What are smaw welding?
smaw welding is sheilded metal arc welding
Can stainless steel be welded with Shielded Metal Arc Welding?
Yes. There are covered electrodes made for SMAW (stick) welding of SS. I have actually repaired one of my wifes SS cooking pots that had a broken handle with a stick welder.
